 === Tasknames ==
-Creating a taskname is one of the simplest way to link behavioral files to a functional dataset, and ideal for scans that have a single comparison (as in, activity versus rest). Tasknames are files with the timing description and behavioral reference already written. When on fScan, open a functional dataset. If a taskname file has been created, simply open the **Stats** taskbar, select autotask, and an activation map of that dataset will appear.
+Creating a taskname is one of the simplest way to link behavioral files to a functional dataset, and ideal for scans that have a single comparison (such as activity versus rest). Tasknames  are files that label a specific task protocol run in the scanner(such as Language). Another file may be created with the same taskname that contains all the relevant behavioral data, as well as are a set timing description. Several different tasknames can be created, each with a different timing reference and behavioral data, and they can be used on fscan to quickly generate activation maps of functional images. If a taskname file has been created, simply open the **Stats** taskbar, select autotask, and an activation map of that dataset will appear.
+In order to verify which taskname is being used by autotask, go to the **File** taskbar, select the 'show data set header' icon, and this will open a header window with all the information about the data set, including the taskname used. To switch the taskname, open the command line, type
+  *-set taskname (yourtaskname)
+This will switch the task file being used in the dataset. To run an automatic ttest, go to the **Stats** taskbar again and select autotask.
+To create a new taskname to run, open a text window and type in a timing reference (Ex: -r timing1 timing2 delay 4.5 -ttest 1 2) and save it as yourtaskname.fscan. This will automatically pull up the file when run with autotask.
